Agreed !!!

I'm only pointing out that the "discussion" here probably should be about "tuning" cleartype font rendering on the machines that display such UGLY A$$ fonts.

Mypal isn't really doing the font rendering, the OS is, and how that OS is "tuned" will have a HUGE difference in what fonts "look like".

These types of "issues" can **ALWAYS** be fixed by the end user !!!

Just replace the "Bitter" font defined by that page's CSS to a different font, whoala, problem solved.

ie, the below is from that page, just replace Bitter with the font of your liking.

 

body, .small-title, .widget-title, .tv-featured-title {

1.  
   font-family: Bitter;

If I wanted to, I could switch to other fonts that look much nicer and more professional in a matter of seconds. It’s really simple to do this in the Mypal 78 settings or using a CSS stylesheet, which I can load on the fly at any time via my forked UserCSSLoader script. But as long as I can read everything clearly, I couldn’t care less about the font used.

About Mypal 78.0.3, there is an issue with fonts display...

Take a look on the comments below the article of this french web page:

This is the font being used by https://www.minimachines.net/actu/taxe-petits-colis-double-peine-142239

https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Bitter

I agree, it doesn't render well...

Now, lets block fonts.googleapis.com (which I usually do) . . .

. . . but that doesn't prove anything because that just corresponds to my settings.

We could do this all day . . .

The question remains. Why doesn't the Bitter font render properly?

. . . and no more pictures of people's own font setting.

Define "properly"?  XP (ie, most of you) has different "smooth edges" font settings and not all of you are using the same OS SETTINGS.

Are you smoothing the edges of fonts?  If so, are you using Standard or ClearType?

Even if the browser is denied that "Bitter" font, it still has to fall back to something, and if that font isn't even installed, then it falls back to something else entirely.

Then there is also GDI versus DirectWrite.

There are a lot of factors at play here.
